Understanding wood decay diseases in western redcedar through development of ITS-sequencing and qPCR assays
2025-03-18
Abstract excerpt
Root and butt rot diseases cause high rates of wood decay in living stands of western redcedar (WRC; Thuja plicata Donn), one of the most valuable forest species in western North America. However, WRC susceptibility and the virulence of wood-decay-causing fungal pathogens are understudied, presenting a high risk for the WRC forest industry. To evaluate susceptibility of WRC to root and butt rot diseases and decay...
